| Views is a decent album, and Drake once again shows that he can both rap and sing well, but the album is overlong. |

| Dreamers This Album Does Not Exist | 3.0 |
Based on the first two singles (Wolves and Drugs), these guys had a lot of potential. But
several of the tracks do not really live up to these songs. The album is decent guitar-
driven indie rock, but besides those greats two tracks, "Lucky Dog" and "Shooting Shadows"
(though "Painkiller", "Sweet Disaster", "Cry out for Me" and "Little New Moon" were good as
well), the remaining few tracks could have been better. |

| Five Finger Death Punch And Justice for None | 1.0 |
"Sham Pain" is in the running to be one of the worst songs of the year.
EDIT: And it's not even the worst song on this. |
| Five Finger Death Punch Got Your Six | 2.0 |
| Another average album from this band. "Boots and Blood" is terrible. If you want to listen to decent rock music, skip this and listen to Highly Suspect's "Mister Asylum" instead. |
| Five Finger Death Punch F8 | 2.0 |
| Five Finger Death Punch A Decade of Destruction | 2.5 |
| Includes some of their stronger cuts like "Battle Born" and "Far from Home", but also includes a decent amount of their poorer stuff like most of the Got Your Six singles and "Lift Me Up". And their cover of "Gone Away" does not do justice to the original at all. |

"Folk-Hop Sound", "Reputation", "We Own the Night" and "Uh-Huh, Yeah!" are all horrendous. The deluxe edition comes with a remix of "Take It All Back" and a bonus track. |

| Overall, another satisfying album from Mr. Tesfaye. I may even prefer this to Beauty Behind the Madness. I recommend Starboy, Party Monster, False Alarm, Rockin', Sidewalks and Reminder. |

| Three Days Grace Outsider | 1.5 |
Basically a worse version of Human. Tracks like "Right Left Wrong", "Me Against You" and "The New Real" are just crap.
EDIT: How does this have a better average than that album? I know it's just a 0.1 difference, but still. |

| "Missing", "I Met a Girl" and "Lonesomeville" are all great country songs. If you do like your country to be traditional (rather than the "metro country" phase that it's going now), this album is for you. |
| Wolf Alice My Love Is Cool | 3.5 |
| X Ambassadors VHS | 2.0 |
| A snooze fest, "VHS" consists mostly of filler tracks, and only "Renegades" and "Jungle" were outstanding. Not even Imagine Dragons could save this record. |
